  • Samnaun's Innovative Hoteliers Launch a Snow Warranty
    Press release Samnaun’s innovative hoteliers launch a snow warranty Three hotels in Samnaun not only promise their guests guaranteed snow on the slopes but also at the village. Because to experience some truly romantic winter moments, you got to hear the crunching of the snow underneath your feet. Their promise: Whoever takes out a snow warranty insurance, only pays half the price for their hotel room with half board or breakfast on the days without ample snow at the village. The insurance is valid from November 22 to December 21. And it applies if there are less than 5 centimetres of snow at the village. Meteo-expert Thomas Bucheli calls it “a courageous innovation”. Everybody wants it – but only few hotels can advertise it as confidently as the ZEGG hotels in Samnaun: guaranteed snow for winter sports fans. Hardly any other ski resort in the Alps has as high a probability of guaranteed snow as Samnaun has. “The snow warranty meets a true need – the guests’ desire for guaranteed experiences”, says Daniel Eisner, hotel manager of the Chasa Montana Hotel & Spa. Once winter season starts in Samnaun on November 22, 2018, 80% of the 238 kilometres of slopes at the Silvretta Arena ski resort in Samnaun / Ischgl are ready to be skied on. But the three hoteliers take it one step further. They not only guarantee snow on the slopes but also at the village. With their innovative snow warranty insurance, the guests get double the benefits. The biggest connected ski resort at the Canton of Grisons with its state-of-the-art facilities offers incredibly attractive prices – Samnaun is the value-for-money leader in Switzerland.

  • Impuls4action 1. Pilot Case – Peatland Pilot Area: Engiadina Bassa
    Impuls4Action 1. Pilot case – Peatland Pilot area: Engiadina Bassa, Switzerland 1.1 General The pilot case is situated in the Inn catchment area which mainly description of comprises the two regions of Upper and Lower Engadine. As a result of the case study the new district divisions, the Upper Engadin with the municipality of Bergell belongs to the Maloja region and the Lower Engadin together with the municipality of Val Müstair to the Engiadina Bassa Val Müstair region. The total area is 1,720 km2 and currently around 25,000 people live in these regions. The Upper Engadine comprises 12 political municipalities with 18,184 inhabitants (source: www.gr.ch, status 2019). The municipality of Bergell, to which the Maloja fraction also belongs, forms the Maloja region together with the municipalities of Bever, Celerina, La Punt Chamues-ch, Madulain, Pontresina, St. Moritz, Samedan, S-chanf, Sils in the Engadine, Silvaplana and Zuoz. The original language in the Upper Engadine is the Romansh idiom Puter. However, this is increasingly being supplanted by German and Italian. The Upper Engadine (excluding Maloja) covers an area of 722 km2, of which just under 3%, 21.4 km2, is used as agricultural land. Since the fusions of the communes, the Lower Engadine has only 4 communes - Samnaun, Valsot, Scuol and Zernez - instead of the former 12, with 7,760 inhabitants (www.gr.ch; as of 2019). The language of the Lower Engadin is the idiom Vallader. Apart from Samnaun, which is German-speaking, Romansh is the official language in all the communes. Of the 1,069 km2, 46.4 km2 are used for agricultural purposes.
